Testimonials
Sean Rose is an impeccable acting coach. He has helped me many times over the years with auditions. Figuring out the scene is easy. It was getting down to the raw and truthful emotions- moment to moment- that are necessary to fulfill the obligations of the scene that is difficult. No matter how funny, dark, or embarrassing it is – I always find it with Sean’s help and I take it with me into my audition and nail it every time I work with him. Of course, I’d highly recommend him! Thank you Sean! – Audi Resendez
Studying with Sean Rose is both an emotionally freeing and enlightening experience. Sean works strongly from the center of his artist, which creates his intuitive nature to not just see but feel the presence of each actor, notice their blocks and identify what direction is next best to continue to free the voice of the actor. Since working with Sean, my confidence has elevated and I am more secure in my actor knowing I can reach any depth of emotional challenge required by a scene or character. Sean guides you on a supportive journey to freedom, honing the craft and self-fulfillment that you, the actor, are enough. This was the next best step I could have taken in my career. It really is an incredible experience. I am forever grateful. – Toni Belafonte
I was so impressed with the work happening in Sean Rose’s class. As a writer/director/producer of TV, film and theatre, it’s comforting to know that he’s training so many actors to identify their blocks and learn to be fully in touch with their bodies and emotions. I can’t wait to work with his students. – Stan Zimmerman
